Item 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

Immaterial Correction of Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

In connection with our fiscal year-end close process, we identified that we did not timely record shrink losses for certain inventories not ultimately received, which also impacted our bonus accrual, in the first three quarters of fiscal 2024. Therefore, our previously issued interim financial statements for the first three quarters of fiscal 2024 did not reflect these adjustments. We have properly accounted for this matter in our fiscal 2024 annual Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-K.

Management evaluated the materiality of the above items based on an analysis of quantitative and qualitative factors and concluded they were not material to the interim periods of fiscal 2024, individually or in aggregate. As a result, we plan to prospectively correct the relevant prior period Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related footnotes for these items in future filings.

The following tables reflect the effects of the correction on all affected line items of our previously reported Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings to be presented as comparative in the Forms 10-Q in fiscal 2025, a 52-week year, ending on February 1, 2026:
